The Gnostic Christians follow the private teachings of Christ. The teachings he just gave to the disciples. They believe that God's "reason" was reincarnated into Jesus so Jesus can show us how to get to heaven. Not by just believing but by actively searching and expanding our own minds. To learn and grow morally as people. They spoke of 5 stages of consciences and in order to return to God you have to reach this level. In order to do so you use the hidden, lost Gospels that were left out of the traditional Bible. This occurred in the first century, when Constantine wanted to make Catholicism the state religion.
I do not know what to think so far, I can understand why they believe what they believe it makes sense. But can I believe I do not know, I haven't gone to a Mass yet, and I will when I can find a church. It almost sounds like a cult, so I want to tread carefully. I do not thing I am in the mood for religion right now. Because I have not been thinking, talking, or even exploring as much as I used to. But I am treading on in hope of finding something
